Current understanding of the Influence of Climate Change and Hurricanes: Trends and Future Projections

An overview of the current knowledge of the influence of anthropogenic climate change and tropical cyclones (TCs) will be presented. First, the current trends of multiple aspects of TCs (intensity, frequency, precipitation) will be discussed. Second, recent results TC trends and on the current TC projections will be explored, in particular the impact of model biases on the uncertainty of these projections. Lastly, we will discuss TC risk in the present and future.
